I had some great results moving the rear hubs forward 2 thick spacers and moving the rear camber link to the number 3 position on the shock tower. I kept the camber -1°.

Thanks for the info what your saying is take the two thick washers from the front and put behind the carrier and move the camber link to # 3

Thanks

It takes a little bit to get used to coming from a 2wd. You can change things like the diff oils and sway bars to make it turn better but just try giving it a little throttle next time. I usually brake in the straight before the turn then drive around the turn.

There's other ways to do this it's just how I drive. Good luck, enjoy that truck, and post some videos!

yeah that's all I did. super quick to do. I'd do one, try it, then do the other. Let us know what you think.

Will do Thanks for the help going back fri nite for practice

Cool. Get someone to film you with their phone and post it. Even better get someone to film it before and after.

Just got my kit. So far best experience building a kit. Manual and packaging are awesome. Only 1 issue. Tekno left out the #450 shock oil. I received 1-#350 shock oil, 2- #3000 diff, 1-#5000 diff, and 1-#7000 diff.

Looking forward to your testing results. The whole bench drop test though from what I have read can be misleading if you are dropping it flat since the conditions where the issues that need to be simulated involve the suspension not compressing evenly as a standard bench drop, all flat, wouldn't show.

Not saying that is what you did, etc. just wanted to bring that up as from what I saw when I did the whole bench drop test stuff, it was different on the track (different vehicle, same principles).

wonder if someone wanted to really run with the whole bench drop stuff, have elevated areas on the target site to simulate the different compression angles that take place at the track?


Here, if the weather gets any better I may take the Tekno outside and see how it goes on some jumps I'll setup on my driveway, see if I can get the same kind of effect I was seeing indoors carpet at least from big lip jumps where there is not a nice takeoff area.

Resqnu,
Just get in touch with Tekno they will make it right there customer service is exceptional and the product speaks for itself. If you any questions on it pm me I just built mine and had no problems

+1 Tekno has excellent customer service.

Heck, I wouldn't have minded that mistake personally lol

I find what spring rate first, all middle location tower and arm. Then I pick the oil and go from there. I get everything fairly close with balance. I do this with most common springs i will be using for track normally 2-3 different spring rates for both front and rear. Then I have a oil range for each different spring rate make a chart or table. As a hint my shock oils are normally little bit heavier than team drivers setup sheets. I setup my rc racing cars to what I like not what pros run. I don't drive like them. What they like and what I like is 2 different things. Are they close yes.

They're out of stock too.

Thanks, I think with more practice it won't be a big deal. I'll try to get some videos at the race this weekend.

Just a general question, seeing how many of you out there run a dragbrake and if so how much? I'm running 10% right now on our tighter technical track
